Why This Glass

A big bowl holds lots of ice and gathers aroma toward the rim, which flatters fruity and botanical drinks.

Tip

For a spritz, fill it with ice first, then pour the prosecco, then the bitter, then the soda.

A Little History

Spain's gin tonic boom in the 2000s turned the oversized copa de balón into a cocktail glass.
